I read this story<\/a> about how health care in America is so fucked up, that it creates a perfect scenario for billionaire Mark Cuban to swoop in and get to play hero to the country.\u00a0 In short, Mark Cuban launched an internet pharmacy that offers more than 100 generic drugs at reasonable cost, which is a bigger deal than it might sound, because American pharmacists have been notorious for gauging the fuck out of the American people over the last decade or so.<\/span><\/p>\n Naturally, Cuban is being lauded with acclaim, in addition to people being refueled for their disdain for the pharmaceutical industry for being greedy and valuing profit over human lives.\u00a0 The thing is, Cuban embarking on this endeavor is about as low-hanging fruit as they come; there are a number of billionaires, corporations, conglomerates or any other entities in the world that could have done this, a long time ago.\u00a0 The fact that of all the random rich entities in there are, Mark Cuban is the guy that grasps the low bar, and is not only going to look like a modern saint, but make no mistake, he\u2019s going to profit, massively.<\/span><\/p>\n I have no qualms with Mark Cuban, in fact I respect the guy tremendously, in spite of the fact that us pleebs are supposed to hate the wealthy.\u00a0 He\u2019s one of the guys that actually understands the need to give some shit away in order to make money, and such is the core strategy of how he basically transformed the Dallas Mavericks from perennial laughing stocks into eventual champions.<\/span><\/p>\n In fact, he\u2019s basically doing the same thing all over again, but instead of basketball tickets, it\u2019s common, necessary medicine.\u00a0 Just because he\u2019ll be selling generic medicine at a little over 15% over at-cost, he\u2019s undoubtedly going to be raking in massive amounts of money on account of the likely million people who will all be shopping his online pharmacy; all while gaining their adulation at providing such a compassionate service.<\/span><\/p>\n It’s basic Wolf of Wall Street<\/em> math here, sell cheap necessities to the lower classes, and there\u2019s ridiculous amounts of money to be made.\u00a0 And as much as I too think what Cuban is doing is a very good thing for the world, the sad reality is that he probably shouldn\u2019t have been the party to have had the opportunity to do this; when it really should\u2019ve been the responsibility of, fucking America, to do this for its own people instead.<\/span><\/p>\n But I guess without stories like this, America really wouldn\u2019t be America.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I read this story about how health care in America is so fucked up, that it creates a perfect scenario for billionaire Mark Cuban to swoop in and get to play hero to the country.\u00a0 In short, Mark Cuban launched an internet pharmacy that offers more than 100 generic drugs at reasonable cost, which is … Continue reading Peak America<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[176,59,79,45,72,83,190,49],"class_list":["post-48415","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-brog","tag-murica","tag-basketball","tag-cashmoney","tag-fail","tag-government","tag-observations","tag-white-people","tag-wtf"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48415","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=48415"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48415\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":48417,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48415\/revisions\/48417"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=48415"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=48415"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=48415"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
